Update on my Mom

She had an MRI done and there is a tumor on her brain. So she needs to have surgery, just not sure when yet since she has to see other doctors. Please PRAY it is NOT cancer!!
I will try and update you as much as I can....

Please pray for my Mom!

She was taken to the hospital on Saturday and they did a cat scan and found a spot on her brain. They are doing an MRI today.. Please keep her in your prayers!
I am going crazy cause I can't be at the hospital since we live 2 hours away and Keith has to work!!

Still here....

Hello my friends! I have been keeping busy so haven't had time to blog lately.
I have been going to Membership Class at church every MOnday this month, then have Praise Practice Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am happy that Andrea is getting Faithbooking going soon! Our first meeting is Sept. 9th. My Friend Tisha and I are also getting Scrapbooking going at the library for every third MOnday of the month. I am really looking forward to both things!
Rachel starts Daisy Scouts in Sept. as well but goes Tuesdays instead of Wed. so Candie will have to take her for me. Rachel seems to do better when Mommy isn't around anyway. LOL
Keith took Rachel to a Railcats baseball game on Wed and she LOVED it! They had to leave early from the game though so she could get home and to be since it was a school night. They got home about 10pm and she went straight to bed. :)
I have been reading as AWESOME series of books and I highly recommend them to you all! "The Yada Yada Prayer Group" books. I am on book #5 now out of 7. They are by Neta Jackson. They are also GREAT for a book club and it tells how you can start your own Yada Yada group as well! :)

Come join the fun!!!

I run this awesome message board with some friends of mine. We love getting new members, so check us out!http://z9.invisionfree.com/Friendship_Cafe/index.php?act=idx

First Day of school and other stuff..

Rachel started first grade yesterday (Aug. 12th) and loved it! She couldn't wait to go back this morning! Yesterday I took her to school and walked her to her classroom, today she rode the bus. Hard to believe she is in first grade already! Couple more years and Emily will go to school as well!!

I started membership classes at church and it's going great! SO now I have class on Monday nights, Praise on Tuesday and Thursdays, and soon Daisy Scouts again on Wed. Plus they want me back in the PTO this year, so I will "try" and do that as well if time allows.

I really wish we had a home computer so I could keep up on here more often. I am getting tired of having to go to the library when I want to use the computer!

Hope everyone is doing well! God bless you all!!

Back Home in Indiana!

Well we got back from my Mom's in IL. yesterday afternoon. We are all glad to be home, but will miss my Mom a lot. We will see her again in Sept. when we all go to a baby shower in MI. though. :)
Tomorrow we plan on meeting up with some friends at our county fair if the weather is ok. It rained all day yesterday and all night last night as well, and has been off and on today so far too.
I am still in shock over my friend Shelly commiting suicide. I had just seen her a week before at WalGreens. We were both in a hurry so just had time to say Hi and smile. Now I keep thinking of that day and wishing I had taken the time to stop and talk with her and I can't help but wonder if that would have made a difference!?!? :( I pray for her soul every night and pray for her family as well. I went to her grave yesterday when we got back into town. She is burried right down from my Dad, so now I will go visit them both.
I have Praise practice tonight at church and am looking forward to it and getting back into the swing of things here and at church.
Rachel starts 1st grade on the 12th! Hard to believe! She is growing so fast and is such a good girl. Emily is going to miss her big sister during the day I am sure.
I guess I will be on the PTO again this year, but maybe not quite as active as I was last year since I am more active in church now and Rachel will be in Scouts again. So we shall see what happens.....
